As We Arrive
Tune: Theme to MASH

As we arrive to Tap each year
Long winter months have disappeared
Excited campers old and new
A lighted match and friends renewed
The sparks rise ever higher, Tap’s family united
Each girl will learn to grow and laugh and love

As red and orange intertwine
The colors blue and gray combine
Flames reaching out to hold us here
As we return from year to year
The flame burns ever brighter
Our memories bind us tighter
Each girl will learn to grow and laugh and love

The summer comes but leaves too fast
Just as the fire tries to last
The friends we’ve made will soon be gone
Logs burn to ashes by the dawn
Though distance may keep us apart
The flame still burns deep in our hearts
Each girl has learned to grow and laugh and love.
